Mo Huiling was envious for a while and then her eyes filled with viciousness. She looked out at the cold moonlight. “It’s all because she knows how to rope people in. Hmph.”
Father Mo saw all these and hurried home.
“Huiling, you really need to stop this. I heard all about it in the company today. Your nonsense this time has provoked many n.o.bilities. What are we going to do if they decide to join forces?”
Mo Huiling was already feeling frustrated. Hearing her father say this, she got angrier, “Dad, why are you being so nosey? I know my limits.”
Father Mo obviously did not listen to her. He hurried to her side as his face was filled with worry. “Huiling, our family cannot fight against so many people. Furthermore, it’s useless for you to keep talking bad about her. If you offend someone, it won’t benefit us at all. I already told you a long time ago. You have to be careful. See how many people you’ve provoked now because of this matter? Now, they are all against us.”
Mo Huiling stood up angrily.
Father Mo circled her as he advised her tirelessly, “Huiling.”
“It’s all because Lin Che instigated this on purpose.”
“And you don’t have a good lever like her to know so many people. Whose fault is it here? If you were also like her and stole hearts everywhere, you wouldn’t be a lone army putting up a brave fight now. It’s all because you’re not as capable as her. You don’t know all these people.”
“Okay Dad, stop it! I’m already frustrated as it is! If you keep talking, I’m really going to kill myself!” Mo Huiling vented.
“Fine fine, don’t be angry.” Father Mo decided to appease her on account that she was carrying Gu Jingze’s child.
“Just wait quietly for your child to be born. At least we will still protect your child from harm. It’s just that this Lin Che is so capable now so you better stay away from her. Otherwise, she might really want to deal with your child. That would be the most challenging part.”
Mo Huiling scoffed. She did not want to concede but she had no other choice.
Father Mo shook his head and mumbled in puzzlement, “Who would have thought that Lin Che would be so capable? In such a short span of time, she already got to know so many rich people. Anyone of them could hold us off for a long time. Now, they have all ganged up. This is really scary…”

Lin Che saw that everyone supported her so much and she felt like she should say something. She said to Lu Beichen, “Help me thank them please.”
Lu Beichen replied, “You’re in the group anyway. You can say it yourself.”
How could Lin Che dare to? “I don’t want to. There are so many wealthy people and if I step out to speak… It’ll be so awkward. You do it. Help me please.”
Lu Beichen sent a forehead-smacking emoticon, “Fine, I’ll do it.”
Shortly after, a message popped up in the WeChat group. Lu Beichen said, “Thank you on behalf of Lin Che. It is not convenient for Lin Che to talk now, so she wants me to thank everyone for your trust and support.”
“Woah, Lu Beichen. Where did you come from?”
“Lu Beichen, you’re on Lin Che’s side too?”
“Boss Lu, you didn’t even invite me to your wedding. When are you going to treat me to a meal?”
Lu Beichen’s appearance made everyone start talking.
Lin Che watched. She did not expect Lu Beichen to have such an attraction.
She was embarra.s.sed and quickly messaged Lu Beichen privately, “Okay, thank you.”
Lu Beichen replied, “It’s fine. Don’t bother with them.”
Lin Che resolved this side of the matter. She went to the company and continued observing the verbal war on the Internet.
Yu Minmin was still monitoring this. She found out that the war did not stop and it was still heating up. She was afraid that she would have to personally handle this.
She first got people to look up some IP addresses and blocked the false ones. There were even some bots. The names of Mu Feiran and Lin Che became a sensitive topic. Anyone mentioning these names in their comments would be investigated. However, the argument was no longer about how famous each of them was. The topic turned towards their acting skills.
Someone took the effort to compare the performances of Lin Che’s first drama with Mu Feiran’s award-winning drama. Lin Che was still green back then and although she had skills too, she was still inexperienced. It didn’t feel as authentic as Mu Feiran’s impeccable skills. Naturally, Lin Che didn’t have any advantage here.
Some mocked, “You dare to compare with Mu Feiran’s acting skills just with this?”
The disparity was too large.
Lin Che felt angry seeing this. However, to be acknowledged by so many people even with news like this, she thought that this was the true comparison.
Furthermore, this was only the beginning. Yu Minmin later discovered that the media released news saying that Lin Che clearly left the audition of “Blood” crying. It looked like her audition didn’t go smoothly. But in the end, she still got the female lead role.
They questioned what kind of shady business went on.
Netizens immediately expressed their bold opinions and said, “She looked so sullen at that time. She must not have been selected. Within a few days later, they announced her as the female lead. If her acting skills couldn’t make it, her background tactics did it.”
“Exactly. It’s not the first time that Lin Che stole a role. She stole a role from Qin Wanwan previously. The Witch’s Diary was supposed to be Qin Wanwan’s.”
“Lin Che should get out of “Blood”. Don’t contaminate Hollywood.”
“Exactly. With Lin Che inside, we will not contribute to the box office. The production crew can’t do this. They can’t pick one that is only lively now over someone with good acting skills because of the Asian audience. We don’t want Lin Che to ruin “Blood”.”
“Lin Che used underhanded means to snub out Mu Feiran instead of her own skills. Who did she sleep with this time in order to gain this role?”
Lin Che witnessed the insults get worse. She sat there and laughed, “These people are really energetic.”
Yu Minmin said, “In the first place, many people were already salty that you got this role. However, “Blood” came to C Nation with no intention of looking at them. They wanted to pick Mu Feiran but she had her own personal matters, so she couldn’t take this up. Thus, they picked you. They never considered anyone else. These people make it sound like you s.n.a.t.c.hed the role. Seriously… They think too much.”
Lin Che said, “It’s okay. It’s not the first time I’m getting thrown in the mud like this. Let them say what they want. No matter how ugly their words are, the role won’t be theirs.”
Yu Minmin said, “Don’t read the comments anymore. I’ll handle the comments problem. The Witch’s Diary never picked Qin Wanwan to begin with either. Now, they are saying that you s.n.a.t.c.hed her role. However, the Witch’s Diary will be airing soon. When the time comes, we’ll let them see what is meant by good acting skills.”
“What do we do now?”
“I’ll first find out who exactly is trying to benefit from this chaos. Mu Feiran is out of the question. She indeed already had the intention to go under the radar. She wouldn’t give herself such problems. It must be someone trying to use Mu Feiran.”
